    I just picked this up from a buddy, slightly used....

    DSA SA58 Para
    18" premium barrel
    Standard full length gas system
    DSA Type II upper receiver
    Aluminum lower receiver
    FN M249 grip
    DSA Para scope mount
    Para bolt carrier with sand cuts
    Para folding cocking handle
    Buttstock tubes shortened to 9.5"
    LOP is now 13.5"
    DSA standard handguards
    T48 trigger guard
    Gemtech Quick Mount flash suppressor
    Kahles 1.1-4x CSX illuminated dot scope
    LaRue 1.5 qd mount
    BFG VCAS sling

    I'm going to attach a piece of picatinny rail to the handguards to mount a while light.

    I like that topcover.
    I replied to your post about it over in the "Files"

    Can you shoot me some info on possible availability/cost?
    Is this the one that Mark Graham got you hooked up with?

    I'm presently using the DSA setup on my carbine but would like to be able to co-witness it.

    Thanks

    DMR,

    Check.

    Understood, I'm trying to have my cake and eat it to, since I have all the KIT already.


    Otherwise, I might as well put a S&B/NF 1X4 & call it a day.

    Could you elucidate who made/makes that mount for you or PM me if you prefer PERSEC.


    I would be interested in getting one of those to play with as well.

    TIA

    Negotiations are on going, will be a few weeks before we have the kinks worked out. I doubt I will be the one offering the final product, but it's nice to dream sometimes.

    Thanks CZ. It was a stock SA58 Carbine I bought from DSA c. 1999. I have since upgraded it to the current configuration. I had the standard Extreme Duty scope mount, but the ACOG mounted in an ARMS #19 dual throw lever mount was a bit too high for my liking. The new mount is just right with a much better cheek weld. Other future upgrades planned are an extended safety lever and possibly an alloy lower receiver.
